This was a request from a coworker. Nearly used all of my red, and I had to scale down the design a couple times to complete it. The proportions aren't quite where I want them, but to give the stars any detail (other than single dots) it will have to do.

This was to be my first commissioned piece, a wedding coordinator contacted me and wanted a cake topper for a couple. I'm a victim of my own thoroughness; the bride apparently followed the instructions on my blog for my process and made her own! I made this last year, I'm taking it apart today to cannibalize the colors I need for my next piece.

The final two colors from the pixelblocks color palette, Light Yellow and Dark Blue, have been notably missing from my collection. Today a generous coworker donated a set that contained every single color, including these two.

I'm going to start making pieces again, starting with a request from this coworker. Look for it soon.
